Critique Assignments
Critique assignments from FNRM 4501/5501 play a valuable role in nurturing critical thinking as they allow students to interact with and interpret findings from educational materials, journal articles, and other relevant publications. Students are asked to summarize and synthesize main findings, highlight new insights, identify bias or shortcomings, and explore how the presented information is, or is not, easily transferable or accessible to wider audiences.
